In anticipation of the upcoming release of the real-time strategy game Command & Conquer 4, EA has freely released three classic Command & Conquer games and an expansion.
The four titles, including Command & Conquer (Tiberian Dawn); Command & Conquer: Tiberian Sun and its expansion pack, Firestorm; and Command & Conquer: Red Alert, are some of the most acclaimed in the franchise.
Command & Conquer
A gritty high tech world where the art of electronic intelligence and covert surveillance reigns supreme. Where guerilla strategies and savage combat are the norm. Build bases, muster forces and dominate your enemies. All for the love of power.
Whether playing as the Brotherhood and obeying the charismatic Kane’s every command or taking control of GDI forces as they seek to save the world from Kane’s ambition, every detail of Command and Conquer is just as you remember it. The original full motion videos tell the story in what was once cutting-edge and is now quaint, and the gameplay is simple as can be. Gather Tiberium to produce tanks, infantry and more to decide the fate of the world.
Command & Conquer: Tiberian Sun
Set in the early 21st century, Tiberian Sun once again pits the Global Defense Initiative against the Brotherhood of Nod in a struggle for control of the planet. With an epic storyline that unfolds as play progresses, players learn the reasons behind the worldwide outbreak of Tiberium and what happened to the notorious Nod leader Kane, who was presumed dead at the end of the first Command & Conquer.
Command & Conquer: Tiberian Sun Firestorm
It’s time to head up the Firestorm task force. Nod’s experiments have unknowingly released a horde of cybernetic nightmares upon the world. As GDI and Nod scramble to save themselves, they realize their only salvation lies in the unthinkable.
Command & Conquer: Red Alert
Dark experiments have permanently altered time. Or have they? Now, Soviet tanks crush city after city while Allied cruisers shell bases. Spies lurk, land mines wait, and strange new technologies aid both sides in their struggle for ultimate control. The mighty Soviet Empire has begun to “liberate” all of Europe. Cities fall and countries collapse before the overwhelming might of the Red Storm. The Allies are scrambling to meet the onslaught, but they have been caught by surprise.
With over 40 missions across an interweaving storyline, and a riveting soundtrack, Command & Conquer Red Alert’s superb gameplay is still easy to take hold of and highly addictive after all these years, Red Alert puts the fate of the world in your hands!
